Chapter 244 Hanzhong Panzhou
Seeing that Su Gu was very embarrassed, Liu Zhang didn't press him for questioning, and just exposed the matter with a smile.
"Hehe, Prefect Su doesn't have to be like this, I just said it casually."
"Yes Yes."
Su Gu could only laugh apologetically from the sidelines, whether it was the Empress General or the Governor of Yizhou, they were all existences that he could not afford to offend.
"The latter general must not listen to the words of the villain, but the governor is honest and upright, and has a long-standing reputation in Sichuan and Sichuan!"
At this time, Pan Zhou who was beside Su Gu suddenly spoke out, defending Que Jian.
"Oh? Mr. Pan lives in Hanzhong, so I didn't expect to know so much about Guanghan County."
"Mr. Pan really dares to say it!"
Unexpectedly, before Panzhou could speak, Yan Shan behind him began to sneer.
"Surnamed Yan, what are you talking about? Do you have any objections to Governor Que?"
Yan Shan just shook his head lightly, and didn't refute anything, let alone talk to Panzhou.
"The latter general, but the governor has a lot of kindness in Sichuan, and it is widely praised by the people everywhere!"
Panzhou was very proud, and began to brag about the achievements of Quejian to Liu Zhang.
Liu Zhang didn't speak, but watched Panzhou's performance jokingly.
Could he not know what Quejian is?
But Jian himself has no talent, he just buys an official position! Ever since he became the governor of Yizhou, he has been amassing money crazily, which has already caused anger and resentment!
A few years later, why did Ma Xiang rebel under the banner of the Yellow Turban, and why did he gather hundreds of thousands of people in a short period of time! It's not the sin of Quejian.
"The latter general, Pan and Que Jian have an old history. If the latter general is interested, Pan can recommend it for him!"
Liu Zhang finally understood why Panzhou was waving his flag at this Quejian. It turned out that the two had some relationship!
"Oh? It turns out that Mr. Pan still has such a lot of energy! That's okay, I will also need a lot of support from Governor Que in the future!"
Panzhou immediately beamed with joy, picked up the wine glass and respected Liu Zhang.
"It's easy to say! Everything will be handed over to Pan! Please, general!"
Panzhou's hanging heart finally relaxed. He was afraid that Liu Zhang would take him to the knife. Now that Liu Zhang wanted something from him, he was still the top figure in Hanzhong.
"Please!"
After Liu Zhang drank it all in one gulp, he looked at Su Gu again.
"Su Taishou, I heard that there is a cult in Sichuan called rice thief. I wonder if there is such a thing?"
"this…"
Su Gu was really depressed, why did Liu Zhangguang ask these sensitive questions, so he didn't know how to answer them.
"Rear General, don't listen to rumors!"
Another person spoke before Su Gu, but it was Panzhou again!
"The later generals don't know that there is a church in Sichuan and Shu, and everyone who joins the church needs to pay five buckets of rice. Gu is called the Five Dou Rice Sect by others. In fact, this religion was originally called Tianshi Taoism! It was created by Zhang Daoling, the descendant of Liuhou Zhang Liang Create!"
"This Tianshi Taoism is not a cult, let alone a rice thief! It is widely believed in the land of Sichuan and Shu! Now it has been passed down to the third generation of Tianshi! This person's surname is Zhang, his name is Lu, and his style is Gongqi. Pan is fortunate to have an old relationship with Zhang Tianshi. , if the general later wants to get acquainted, Pan can also walk around!"
"Mr. Pan is really powerful. It seems that there is nothing that Mr. Pan can't do in Yizhou!"
Liu Zhang understood why Panzhou had such a high status in Hanzhong! Living in Hanzhong, but being able to know the affairs of Shuzhong so clearly, and being able to get along with people like the governor and Tianshi! The background of this Panzhou is absolutely extraordinary!
Panzhou didn't catch the meaning behind Liu Zhang's words at all, instead he showed a more complacent expression.
"Where is it, the general later praised it!"
Liu Zhang responded to Panzhou symbolically, and never asked Su Gu any more.
With Panzhou here, Su Gu should not be able to say anything. Moreover, Liu Zhang had a feeling that Su Gu didn't want to get involved in these right and wrong, and Liu Zhang had to find out everything by himself.
After the banquet lasted for a while, Liu Zhang left on the grounds that he was tired. Seeing that Liu Zhang had left, everyone got up and said goodbye without any further delay.
Three days later, Su Gu packed up everything and took the whole family to Luoyang. Liu Zhang also became the prefect of Hanzhong in a veritable name.
In the meeting hall of the county guard's mansion, Liu Zhang sat on the main seat, and all the people in the room were his most trusted people. Huang Zhong, Tai Shici, Dian Wei, Zhao Yun, and Xu Huang are on the left, while Jia Xu, Xun You, Guo Yuan, and Sun Qian are on the right.
"Everyone, now that everything is settled, we have finally taken the first step steadily!"
Finally, he sat down in person as the prefect of Hanzhong. This feeling made Liu Zhang extremely at ease.
"Congratulations, my lord!"
Everyone stood up and handed over their hands to congratulate. Their joy was no less than that of Liu Zhang, and some of them were even more excited than Liu Zhang himself.
"All of this is inseparable from your efforts! Wenhe, Gongda, what do you think we should do next?"
It was the first time to master a piece of land. Besides the excitement, there was more confusion, which made Liu Zhang a little unsure how to start.
Seeing that no one spoke, Jia Xu stood up first and expressed his opinion.
"My lord, from the bottom of my eyes, it's better to be quiet now than to move. There are nine counties in Hanzhong County, and we don't know the situation in each county very well. If we act rashly, I'm afraid it will cause public outrage. It's better to calm down and observe confidently, and cooperate with the secret investigation. , to identify those who are talents and which are cancers."
"At this moment, the most important thing for us is to hurry up and recruit troops! Whether it is a threat in Hanzhong County or a threat in Liangzhou, our existing troops are not enough to deal with emergencies!"
Liu Zhang nodded, agreeing with Jia Xu's words very much.
Indeed, as he said, once the officials are recklessly and substantially adjusted, it is easy to cause panic and even be used by people with good intentions.
"Wen He's words are very close to my heart! No matter when, where, or under what circumstances, only if we have enough power in our hands will we not be afraid of others!"
After Liu Zhang finished speaking, Xun You also stood up.
"My lord, Hanzhong County seems to be peaceful, but in fact, bandits are rampant! According to You's understanding in the past few days, there are no less than ten thieves, large and small!"
"Ten? So many! Hasn't Su Gu paid attention to it for so many years?"
Liu Zhang was amazed in his heart. There are only nine counties in Hanzhong County, and there are more than a dozen bandits. This is not entering a treasure land, it is simply entering a den of thieves!
"How can Su Gu not know, it's just that he has more than enough heart and not enough energy! Every time a conquest will encounter multiple problems! There must be collusion among officials!"
Xun You's words suddenly reminded Liu Zhang of a person, Panzhou!
"The recruitment of soldiers is imminent! With soldiers and horses, we can completely govern Hanzhong!"
Liu Zhang has already made up his mind. Although the current soldiers and horses are elite, the number is too small to cope with this chaos.
"Han Sheng, recruit your martial arts battalion to 5,000 people."
Huang Zhong was overjoyed, and directly accepted the order.
"The general obeys orders!"
"Ziyi, the Wufeng battalion has expanded to eight thousand!"
"The general obeys orders!"
"Come on, Gongming!"
